Vipezer No External Link gives you full control over the external links in your content.
When you select Automatically process on publish, every post you publish or update is scanned for links that point to other websites. You choose what happens to them:
- Keep the links and add attributes – adds
rel="nofollow",noopenerandnoreferrer(you can also addsponsored,ugcandtarget="_blank"). - Remove the link, keep the text – the link is removed but the visible text stays in your post.
- Remove the link and its text entirely – the whole link including its text is removed from the content.
Links that point to your own site are never touched by default. You can also keep links to specific domains with a simple allow-list.
Every post has its own override setting on the edit screen, so you can always force processing on, or keep one post untouched.
Built for safety
- Compatible with PHP 7.4 through the latest PHP 8.x releases.
- All processing happens with a built-in fallback and error handling so publishing never fails.
- No tracking, no external services, no data sent anywhere.
- Cleanly deletes all its settings when you remove the plugin.
How it works
The plugin inspects your content the moment a post is published (or updated) and modifies external links based on your settings. Content is changed once, stored safely, and displayed normally.
